Which main group elements have a different number of outermost electrons than their group number?
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Noble gases
Option B is correct because noble gases have 8 outermost electrons (except for Helium which has 2), while their group number is 18 (or 8A), thus having a different number of outermost electrons than their group number.
